Profile
I have been teaching since 2011; I have taught grades 2, 3, 5 and 6. I have been at grade 6 for the past 6 years where I prepare students for the Primary Exit Profile (PEP) which is their final examinations before transcending to high school. I am proud to say that our students have been doing really well. I am passionate about my job and my students' growth.
One of my favorites quotes is by Winston Churchill, "The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty."
